Rosalynn Carter Turns 95

Congratulations to Rosalynn Carter on her 95th birthday. I read where she is the second-oldest First Lady ever. (Does anyone know who was the oldest?) She's always had a lot of dignity, despite having to deal with problems, heartache and controversies (Jimmy's "lust in his heart" interview, his landslide election loss, her friendship with serial killer John Wayne Gacy, cruel media comments about daughter Amy's appearance, etc). Happy Birthday!

I love the Carters. Not giving them a second term was one of the bigger mistakes of the US. Rosalynn is lovely, and she and Jimmy are like June and Johnny Cash: real Christians who walk the walk.

The REAL Mrs. Carter.

The relationship with Gacy never became physical, although the media suggested so, Gacy painted several portraits of Rosalyn.

Snort. I was Adolfo and Galanos. Rosalynn was the softer side of Sears.

I imagine you did need those designer clothes, Nancy, dear. Bless your heart, I suppose one has to do something when one has no soul.

Jackie Kennedy would still be younger today than Roslyn, yet she has been gone for nearly 30 years. She like JFK and JFK Jr was taken from us far too soon.

The Carter's are both fantastic people. The scumbag beltway media hated them of course.

Jimmy Carter is the most Christian president we've ever had. This is why the Republicans hate him.

No one hated them as much as the Kennedys.

The Kennedys were America's royal family and Ted Kennedy would have been a great President!

I found Rosalynn and Jackie to have been the most beautiful first ladies.
